“When the Hallmark Channel holiday movies air later this year, the annual ‘Countdown to Christmas’ and ‘Miracles of Christmas’ lineups will include LGBTQ narratives” CNN reports.
“The holiday season will bring 40 new movies but the ones with LGBTQ storylines are making headlines right now. Producers say they are in “active negotiations” and that “more details” are on the way.”
“The announcement came days after the channel was bombarded with online criticism for teasing a slate of new Christmas movies that appeared to lack LGBTQ inclusion.”
“Hallmark responded to frustrated viewers by assuring them that new content will reflect their demands for better LGBTQ representation.”
